The Process of Making Offers and Escrow:
Pre Qualifying for a loan, finding the home you want to buy and making an offer and negotiating the purchase contract are the first steps of the home buying process. The first step when making an offer will be to determine the purchase price to offer. We will do that by reviewing comparable sales of the same sq footage homes within 1/2 mile range of the subject property. We will add and subtract for upgrades and/or work that needs to be done on the property taking in to account any competition (other offers on the property) and also how bad you want the property...Using that information I will structure an offer that is to your best interest. I will then submit the offer and we will wait for an answer from the seller. It necessary we will counter back and forth until we reach a meeting of the minds or agreement of price and terms. After we have an accepted offer we will open escrow and start the escrow process.
The first thing we will do after your offer is accepted and opening escrow is schedule a home inspection.. The cost is $250-300 Second thing I will send a copy of the contract to your lender to start on your loan. The lender will order the appraisal. You may have to pay $400-450 for the appraisal... These are your only expenses at this time...Toward the close of escrow you will pay the balance of your down payment and closing costs after you sign your loan documents just before the close of escrow...
All purchase contracts include an inspection contingency. The standard contingency period is 17 days and it can be changed or negotiated when making the offer. The contract allows 17 days to approve of all matters effecting the property including the inspection, the appraisal, reviewing the disclosures, title report, natural hazard report and to approve of all matters effecting the property. If we are going to make a request for repair or request for a credit for repairs, we do it during the 17 day contingency period.
Review the contract and make a list of important dates. These will include such things as the contract contingency deadlines and the actual closing date. I will keep you posted on these timelines..
Make sure to provide your lender with all the information needed to get your loan approved and to satisfy your lenders conditions when asked so you get your loan documents on time. Most of the time there will be pre document conditions and pre funding conditions.
Review the Escrow Instructions to make sure they are correct before signing them. Make any changes by requesting escrow to make an amendment if needed. Review the Disclosures thoroughly, review the NHD Report and the Title Report thoroughly before signing them off and approving them.
When a closing is delayed, it usually has something to do with the buyer's mortgage. In order to ensure that this doesn't happen to you be diligent about providing the lender with all the documentation needed to give you final loan approval. Also keep in mind the lender won't prepare the loan documents for you to sign until all the lender's conditions for approval have been satisfied.
As the closing date approaches, you'll go to escrow to sign your loan documents or escrow will send a mobil notory to your home and you can sign your loan documents at home. After you sign your loan documents you will arrange to transfer the funds for your down payment and closing costs to escrow that are necessary to close the sale. At this point escrow will fund your new loan close within a few days. We will schedule a final walk-through of the property to make sure that it is in substantially the same condition as it was when the seller accepted your offer near or AT THE CLOSING.

Don't have a Foreclosure - Do a short sale! Honestly, Do you want to do a short sale? probably not. But you may have to do the shortsale to get out from under all that negative equity. Do you owe more than your home is currently worth in today's Real Estate Market? As you know the Real Estate market has been in a downtrend, it has dropped. Many homeowners are in the Pre Foreclosure and Foreclosure stages and are upside down on their mortgages.

SOME OF THE BENEFITS OF DOING A SHORTSALE ARE:

You probably bought your home at the peak of the market or somewhere close to it. Then when the real estate market dropped your property declined in value and you were stuck with a negative equity upside down on your mortgage. Like many other people now you owe more than your home is worth. The banks are letting people out from under this negative equity. But to get out from under it you have to do a shortsale. You have the option to do a shortsale but you must act fast and list your home and put it on the market as a shortsale subject to lender approval. You must close escrow within the time allowed or your home will be foreclosed on because there are time lines that must be met. Many people who have had foreclosures tried to do a loan modification first and ran out of time. Don't let it happen to you. Do your shortsale early before time runs out. If you list your home as a shortsale subject to bank approval and your shortsale is Approved you may be completely released of the debt. If you have a successful shortsale, it should show on your credit report as (Settled for less than owed)
If you want to do a SHORTSALE? Please call me for an appointment. I would like to be your shortsale agent!
IF YOU DECIDE TO DO A SHORTSALE AND YOU WANT ME TO BE YOUR REALTOR YOU WILL NOT BE PAYING FOR MY SERVICES. THE COMMISSIONS WILL BE NEGOTIATED WITH YOUR LENDER AND PAID OUT OF THE PROCEEDS FROM THE SALE OF THE HOME.
